After only two weeks of arriving in Australia I got myself a car, the necessary tools, created a new website and proceeded to get an ABN in an attempt to move my freelance business that I had when I was in Italy, an attempt that can now be said to have been Successful given that only from November 22nd to today, my business, thanks to my perseverance and the hard work done every day, without days off, has seen more than 70 satisfied clients including condominium companies, hotels and private individuals residing in the city of Sydney and its surroundings, a dozen of whom have now become regular clients with whom I remain in close contact on a monthly basis for any need, thus guaranteeing me a good turnover that at times many weeks has seen it exceed three thousand dollars (pw).

In addition to the clients that I contact directly, I try to find new ones every week through applications for professionals such as hipages and sometimes also through airtasker.

The main services that I have been able to provide in recent months with the equipment I have available:
- basic electrical repairs

- repairs to furniture and interior doors
- installation and assembly of pergolas
- installation and assembly of retractable awnings, Venetian blinds and roller shutters
- caulking and sealing activities

- landscaping
- assembly and restoration of furniture
- wall installation of mirrors, paintings etc...
- installation of skirting boards
- clearances
- repairs and installation of gyprock
- design and installation of shelving and solutions for warehouses and garages

Only quality work managed with the customer from the initial inspection, to the design up to the implementation and conclusion of the project.
